The Opéra Garnier is a national theater which has the vocation to be an academy of music, choreography and lyric poetry; it is a major element of the heritage of the 9th district of Paris and the capital. It is located on the Place de l'Opéra, at the northern end of the Avenue de l'Opéra and at the crossroads of many roads.
The building is a particularly representative monument of the eclectic architecture and historicist style of the second half of the 19th century. Based on a design by the architect Charles Garnier, chosen following a competition, its construction, decided by Napoleon III as part of the transformation of Paris led by the prefect Haussmann and interrupted by the war of 1870, was resumed at the beginning of the Third Republic, after the destruction by fire of the opera Le Peletier in 1873. The building was inaugurated on January 5, 1875 by President Mac Mahon under the Third Republic.

All my brothers are monks. Even though I had some other vocational choices, it seemed this was the only one. Its very hard and I do sometimes question whether this is right for me. One day, I pray, it will become clear.
